    book I read is, “The Maze Runner”. This title correlates to the story very well. “The Maze Runner” is exactly what the title says. It is basically about a bunch of teens trapped in a glade within a giant maze and they are trying to escape. The main character in the story becomes a runner, as his job is to run the maze and map it to hopefully escape. The title is almost describing the main character’s role completely. The title also sparks interest because, as a teen, “The Maze Runner” sounds…

    the Maze Runner. It is written by James Dashner. My book is 374 pages long. The genre of my book is science fiction because it has an unrealistic setting that could not be possible with today's technology. It is also not based off of a true story, so it is fiction. I would give this book five stars. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I even finished it in the first week of me reading it because I liked it so much. I liked the aspect of how the characters are stuck in the middle of a giant maze,…
